So, we got the wonderful, super exciting offer to go to the Olympics.... I swear, I jinxed it all by myself. Karma, I guess.
So, we got down to the VIP Lounge and I got pulled aside right away. There were tickets, to Women's Basketball. Crazy person that I turned them down. As you know we did end up taking them, luckily I consulted with my family first and they did want to go!
The issue then because was that the tickets were a ways away. So, my husband left to get the tickets and the boys and I finished eating and then headed to meet up with him at the North Greenwich Arena aka as the O2. O2 is a big cell phone carrier here in the UK and the venue is typically called the O2. For some reason during the Olympics they have called it the North Greenwich Arena instead.
Somehow, I am still not quite sure how, my husband got confused and went to the Greenwich Park instead of the arena. Greenwich Park is where a lot of the Equestrian events were held and apparently if you are not reading signs closely and aware of where you are going you can make the mistake and go to the wrong place. By the time he realized his mistake it was 10 minutes to the start of the game. He made it just before half time. I cried, I couldn't help it. Why can't we have a simple life where everything is rosy. I mean come on seriously!!!!
I am so over things going wrong. I just wanted to go to the game and to make our Olympic memories. We have Olympic memories alright.... good ones and crazy ones! The crazy always seems to find me and sometimes it just gets hard to keep on smiling....
